SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 8 - Question 19

In ΔPQR, ∠R = 54° and the perpendicular bisector of PQ at S meets QR at T. If ∠TPR = 46°, then what is the value (in degrees) of ∠PQR?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 8 - Question 19


∠PRQ = 54°, ∠TPR = 46°
So, ∠PTQ = 54° + 46° = 100° (External angle property)
The perpendicular bisector of PQ meets PQ at S and QR at T.
So, ΔPTS ≅ △QTS
So, ∠TPQ = ∠TQP = x
100° + x + x = 180° (Angle sum property of triangle)
x = 40°
Therefore, ∠PQR = 40°

SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 8 - Question 20
If the six-digit number 6x2904 is divisible by 88, then the value of x is:
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 8 - Question 20
If the number is divisible by 88, then it is also divisible by 11.
If the difference between the sum of the odd-numbered digits and the sum of the even-numbered digits is divisible by 11, then the number is divisible by 11.
13 + x - 8 = 5 + x
For number to be divisible by 11, x must be equal to 6.
SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 8 - Question 21

In the given figure, ΔAOB is an equilateral triangle. What is the measure of ∠ CAB ?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 8 - Question 21

In an equilateral triangle, all the sides and angles are equal. Also, each of the angles of the triangle is equal to 60°.

The angle between the tangent to a circle and the radius of the circle is equal to 90°.
Thus, in the given figure,
∠AOB = ∠OBA = ∠BAO = 60° [∵ ΔAOB is an equilateral triangle]
Also, ∠CAO = 90°
Thus, ∠CAO= ∠CAB + ∠BAO
∠CAB = ∠CAO – ∠BAO = 90° – 60° = 30°
